Reminder: Double Oak, others offer Christmas tree recycling

As a reminder, several area communities are accepting recycled Christmas trees. Beginning Wednesday, the Double Oak Town Council is providing a 30-yard roll-off container in the parking lot by the Double Oak Volunteer Fire Department for the collection of Christmas trees.

The Dumpster is only for Christmas trees — no artificial trees with all lights and decorations removed — and is only for use by Double Oak residents.

Town officials ask that residents do not leave anything outside of the Dumpster. When it is full, nothing else should be dropped off or left on the ground.

As part of the town’s agreement with Waste Management, residents can receive four free passes to the landfill. The passes are available at town hall.
